Oldschool Runescape is known for its long, endless grinds in several skills, especially when trying to get to 99. While some skills in OSRS can be trained to level 99 in less than a day, it should be noted that most skills that don’t take a long time to level 99 are typically costly to train..
In this guide, I'll outline the quickest skills to train to 99, along with the most effective ways to get there and a summary of the associated costs.
Fletching is a skill in Oldschool Runescape that can be trained to 99 faster than any other skill. It lets you make various kinds of ranged weapons and their ammo. Fletching can be profitable, but not if you're trying to reach 99 as quickly as possible.
Using feathers and dart tips, you can fletch darts as quickly as possible to reach 99 fletching. This method is also relaxing because it only requires two clicks to complete an inventory. Once you reach 95 fletching, you can begin fletching dragon darts, which can earn you about 1.3 million experience per hour.
You should do quests at the start to get to 30+ fletching, after that, below are the fastest methods to get to various levels, the experience rate you should expect, and the total cost of 99.
Getting to 99 using this method will take you roughly 8 hours and about 150M.
It is well known that prayer training is expensive, even for the slowest approach. It should come as no surprise that the fastest technique requires so much GP; in contrast to fletching, you can utilize the extremely quick approach starting at level 1.
Using Superior bones is the fastest way to train prayer, but this is the only bone that needs to be used at a specific prayer level—70 prayer is needed. The fastest way to train up to 70 prayer is to use Ourg bones, but these are incredibly expensive—they can cost up to five times as much as Daganoth bones—and they only provide 52.5 more experience than Dagannoth bones.
Training with Daganoth bones to 70 is a better option by far, after that, you should train with superior bones from 70 to 99 prayer.
If you have 75 construction, you simply need a hammer and a saw in your inventory to create a gilded altar in the altar space of the chapel of your player-owned house (POH). If you don't own a home, you are welcome to utilize other players’ houses in Rimmington and Yannile on W330.
Gilded altars are crucial if you want to reach 99 prayers as quickly as possible since they provide a 250% bonus, a 300% prayer experience when one incense burner is lit, and a 350% benefit when both are lit
Using the Superior Bones for training, you should be able to get 1.3 million experience every hour.
Alternatively, you can use the Chaos temple to train, it is certainly cheaper but slower and you’d need to be more careful because of Pkers.
Like other skills on this list, training construction all the way to level 99 would be pricey, but the skill has excellent experience rates.
This is a summary of the quickest route from construction level 1 to 99.
The quickest route to 19 construction would be to construct crude wooden chairs in the parlor's chair hotspot within your POH. This would require two planks, two nails, a hammer, and a saw from your inventory. It would only take a few minutes to reach 19 construction.
The easiest path from levels 19 to 52 is to create Oak Chairs. You can construct Oak chairs in your POH's living room chair area; it takes 19 construction and grants 120 experience; all you need in your inventory is a hammer and a saw.
At level 33, building oak larders is the fastest way to get experience. You may build it in the kitchen larder area of your POH to gain 480 experience, and all you need to have in your inventory is a saw and a hammer.
It is the second-fastest way to train construction and is reasonably priced. It can be created in the dining room table space in your POH and only needs a hammer and saw.
To be able to build the gnome bench, you need to have a superior garden in your POH. it can be built in the seating space, This is the fastest method of getting to 99 construction but it is very click-intensive compared to mahogany tables.
This would take roughly 13 hours to get to 99.
The ability to employ chins that can hit many foes makes ranged the fastest fighting skill to get to 99. Once at 99, ranged may be highly useful, especially for PVM, and it's very effective against most high-level monsters.
Here are the fastest ways to get to 99 ranged include:
No doubt the fastest way to get to begin ranged would be to do these quests, if you complete Shadow of the Storm, Death of Dorgeshuun, and Horror from the Deep, this would take you to 32 ranged.

Cooking can be very relaxing to train and like prayer, while being afk, it offers high experience rates but when trying to get to 99 as fast as possible. You would need to use a click-intensive method which is the 1-tick Karambwan cooking,

Herblore is a skill that is exclusive to P2P players.
